So I missed Jupiter tonight. Did you get to see
Jupiter before you came in? But this is the closest
Jupiter has been to the Earth since like nineteen so
slightly close so than yesterday? A little bit, yes, but
then it gets further away. Apparently today was the jay
Maybe I saw it yesterday. If Jupiter was going to

(01:07):
attack us, today would be the day. Because we kind
of looked around like, oh, what's that cool? And then
we went on with our day because I picture because
I pictured Jupiter, like, you know, because Jupiter's got the eye,
or to Saturn have the eye? Which one I forget?
Jupiter the right, there's okay. Then there's the eye of academic. Yeah,
I mean Saturn's got all a drink, so that would
be the eye, right, not that Jupiter's got the eye.

(01:28):
I don't know which one astronomer. Jupiter's got the eye, right,
but you were at school more recently than I was.
Jupiter's got the eye, right? Yeah, yeah, you're sure about that? Sure?
Because if Jupiter was like that was where it would
get so close to us, and out of the eye
would be the laser beam. That is kind of like

(01:49):
the death Star, Like the death Star shows up and
here it is we're around j Ye or Scarf, Yeah,
Scarff as well, sorry spoiler yeah Scarf. Hey, some folks
haven't gotten to see any of the recent development. Dare
that time. He's had eight years to see that. It's okay,
but that this is where that would happen. Now I

(02:10):
feel better that now Jupiter is just gonna be further away.
We don't have to worry about Jupiter attacking us. Well,
maybe it's a rope a dope kind of situation. Oh no, Hey,
they get close enough to say, here we are, but
we're we're peaceful. And then they started back away, so
you turn your back thinking it's safe, and then they
come back with the chair over the top, and oh
my god, it's bedlam. Don't blame me. I voted for Kodas.

(02:33):
Do you think it's a coincidence that on the day
that Jupiter is closest to us since nineteen sixty three,
they have the United States. We had that big test
in space today where they blew up a meteor with uh,
with whatever you know device they had showing that if
armageddon actually happened in a breakaway meteor was heading for

(02:53):
the planet, we could blow it up before it gets here. Yeah,
that's really good. Vegas of misdirection from the fact that
gas is back up half a buck a gallon here
in southern California and the fact that people's uh, well,
overall pocket books and everything they've worked so hard for
keep shrinking. We blew up a meteor, that happens, I

(03:14):
don't gotta worry about. Bruce Willis pulling out the things
from Ben Affleck's packs. We could save his life. To
go back with liv Tyler. Wait, wait, why are you?
Why are you doing this press conference? Why is Steven
Tyler setting up? I could stay Wick? Just do here?
You Steven Tyler doing scarf on that microphone behind that

(03:35):
just pulling it back. Just keep the microphone in front
of you instead of pulling it back and forth. Stephen.
I don't think it's a coincidence. The Jupiter gets the closest.
Maybe they're gonna tech. No, we prove that we can
blow stuff up in space. Man, we're gonna do it.
Don't want to close my eyes. He is Pluto a planet?
By the way, Pluto is a dwarf plants now called
the dwarf plant. But is that is that? Is that correct?

(03:56):
I mean correct? I do we ever asked a little
little planet? Need to talk about how we have to
use words put feel? It was a planet? And well,
well but it did get demoted. What did it do?
I got demoted? Yeah? I did? What did you do? Well,
there's a lot of behavioral issues come on lunchtime, and uh,

(04:18):
there was they pulled a fire alarm in the middle
of sixth period and became one of the Breakfast Club.
I mean if you're in the back of the classy
act up there. Well, there was there was some detention
on Saturday and the boll So now they got they
had a demote Pluto. Sorry, word is probably just reaching Pluto.
Now they got demoted. Imagine operating, You're thinking you're still

(04:40):
in a position of cloud when he got got light
years away. It's like, oh, plo Pluto, Pluto's really rot.
Pluto demoted? What was it? What was that movie where
bread Pit actually went to Pluto? What was that? What
was that? He was an No, it was an astronaut
and he somehow I was able to get there in
the in the span of a two hour move. No, no, no,
that was Matthew mcconne. No, it's just out a couple

(05:01):
of years ago where it's like, yeah, Brad Pitt's gonna
go to like Neptune and Pluto. It's like that was
ad Astro. Yeah, he's gonna get there in two hours,
I mean two hours of a movie. Tommy Lee Jones.
Yeah sure, but yeah, Pluto got demoted back in two
thousand six. Yeah, so Pluto is probably just finding out now. Yeah,
the international Astronomical Union voted to demote Pluto from its

(05:24):
status as the ninth planet to one of dozens of
known dwarf planets, a jag planet. Sometimes it takes just
another planet, Jack planet. You know, the Internet on Pluto
is slow, so just by the time they found we
just got to my Twitter just came back. You were
just having a discussion about you might need to upgrade

(05:45):
your ability to receive and transmit information to keep up
with all the streaming services that are now available for you. Here.
Let's not bury the lead. I'm happy that if something
comes at us in space we can blow it up,
traveling like four team foul in miles an hour. But
now do you blame Jupiter or do you have to
find another fall gay? Oh no, no, Now, I just

(06:05):
want to Jupiter fall. You saw us really close. We
waved and moved back. I forget it. We have to
we have to go on the film. We gotta start
blowing some planets up. We gotta blow some stuff up.
Let's start with Mars, all right, Mercury. Why not? Because
but they wanted to colonize Mars. What if Mars attacked us? Man?
Didn't you see Mars attacks? They actually attacked us. They

(06:27):
haven't yet because no, now we have it. Now we
we should go blow all those planets up. Man, just
keep moving out, told us get your glass tomorrow. No, no, no, no,
we gotta blow up. We gotta blow up the moon.
We gotta blows we gotta blow up. You know, you
want to tell him what happens if he does accurate. No,
we'll just we just tell him what happens with the
We'll just build another moon. We'll be fine. Actually, we
don't need a moon. We just need a space station.

(06:48):
We could do whatever we want. We we we we're
the We're the world. We want to start yelling us
saying the only up. No, because because you know, you know,
somewhere somebody stubbed on their dial and came across this
thinking this was a big political speech. And do you
realize how much as a galaxy that Earth would move
up in the rankings if we were the only one

(07:10):
left in our galaxy? Well, you know Earth with Earth
was number four, who was ahead of them? Mars and
Jupiter was ahead of them, so was Saturday. But then
what happened? Yet Earth blew them all up. So I
guess Earth is number one, it really is now just
Earth winding fire. And then you had to wear a
rain cut because they were dropped some Jupiter. You know what,
after it was destroyed. I'll say this, Mercury is underrated.

(07:31):
Mercury is too hot. We don't want Mercury is too hot.
Mercury to be careful. Merkeury decides they want to attack us.
What if the planet say now we gotta blow up Mercury.
But he liked, Oh, by the time we get all
out to Pluto, Pluto could get promoted again. Earth took

(07:59):
out of the most loved the dwarf planets back into
the U, into the rotation, into the starting nine because
it got demoted for the Starting nine. All right, let
me just let me just say this. I'm not I'm
not advocating blowing up planets. It's just kind of are
not really No, I'm not really gotta let out some violence.
I'm just trying. You want too much star wars in
the night. Maybe we got attractive and I've got this

(08:21):
death star. We need some more space. We need some
more space. Planets are getting too close, Jupiter's getting jupiters
more personal space. Just you know, we gotta send Luca
x Wing nine four elbow room for planet, we said,
Luca x Wing and he just shoots the proton torpedoes
ready to the Jupiter's eye and boom, the air goes
Jupiter and you see the big explosion. And then Princess

(08:43):
lay his hanging medals around everybody at the end and
we're singing the Star Wars theme song. How great would
that be? Here? You need to get a medal? Yeah,
well he's too tall. Just put it on yourself. We
start making some room. Some of these other galaxies may
get word of and go baby, we don't an attack
Earth because that's the other thing is that, like with
you see the prison approach. We don't want him. You

(09:07):
don't want to mess with Earth because this is some
real serious day. They're blowing up planets. Man, Let's just
go figure something else out. Let's leave Earth alone. So
you're totally going prison child, I gotta go in there
and I gotta beat someone up to show I've just
I get left alone. I was just saved Earth from
being invaded by you. Just made ty Shirt's head ex
go on the offensive. Send Pie has been stunned. Come on, man,

(09:28):
we have we already have the space force, don't we?
Space force? Space force, don't we. Let's get out there, man,
get out there and throw some elbows. Let's get out there,
man throws. Let's get going, haymakers. We've got lasers. You
can actually collect, collect all the stuff from Jupiter and
sell like your own product. Drops of Jupiter would be great.
Army just ran to drop the stupid a line. But

(09:50):
I'm saying, but now he's funny when we've just heard it.
You gotta trying to make a funny joke. I'm safe,
actually serious. I'm building a site, right, Yeah, I've got
the Mylar bags ready to go. We blew up Jupiter
tight shirt with like glass seen bags in space. Right,
But he's like dan Ackroid on the famous Saturday What

(10:13):
is that bag of glass? What is that? Drops in Jupiter?
Real drops in Jupiter? You gotta be carefully. You can
cut yourself getting all right, So there we go. All right,
if you can do that type shirt hasn't be a
great business for you. I want Pluto back, that's all.
We would We would get Pluto back, because well, well
we gotta have somebody backs. We would get Pluto would
come back. Pluto doesn't get the talk Pluto. With Pluto

(10:33):
so so far away, you know how long it's gonna
take them to get hear our message. Now, it's gonna
be like two thousand and seventy five by the time
they get Oh, hey at Jason Smith in my car.
But boy, blowing up planets, we could have done something.
Oh it's been Oh it's been a thousand years. Oh okay,
all right, well I guess that's done. Then, all right,

(10:54):
what was in that pizza sauce? Man? No coincidence? Man,
Jupiter gets close. We prove we can blow stuff up
and we didn't get any mushrooms done. Get off myself.
Everything the United States, everything we did today was better
than that Cowboys Giants game. That's for sure. Much more
offense we showed in space today. The Cowboys and Giants

(11:17):
had that game was tied six six with eight seconds left.
Miss day, No coincidence, Twitter, and about a Fresco. Mike
gets swollen on the Jason Smith Show with my best
friend Mike Harmon. So yeah, you know, we'll get back
into the Giants Cowboys in a couple of seconds. But uh,

(11:38):
that was more fun. It was just because it's because
blowing stuff up in space and winning Space Wars sounds cool,
just doubled into the other day. You know, listen, here's
what we do. We we we talked to Robert Downey Jr.
Because he was trapped in space for a long time.
Got lucky to get saved by Captain. You've got a
lot of money, you know, and you can help. How

(11:58):
can we survive in deep space for that long? And
and we get those those tips and then suddenly I
love them. Three to the racist man. You can the
Avenger Ship is out there. It's gonna be great. And
with the back end points you'll get from any footage
we shoot will be funded forever. Maybe we let him
blow up one of the planets. Which one do you want? Well,

(12:19):
I mean he gets to do it as an honorary
as being one of the Angel investors in the first phase.
I'm project blowing up. I'm with it. Uh. Today we
saw the end of the Pro Bowl. He the Pro
Bowl had a good run. Yeah, no question. Pro Bowl

(12:39):
had a good run. UH made it a good seventy
five years now there is no more Pro Bowl. Instead,
the Pro Bowl we replaced by a week long activities.
They'll be flag football. The Mannings will be involved like that,
instead of bringing in Jimmy Smith's to fix the show.
It's like, what sport need help, We'll bring the Mannings in. Uh, great,

(13:02):
the Mannings will help, hope. I mean, I like the
Manning brothers at all, but I'm seeing enough of them.
Let's bring them in. That's why there's that's why Peyton's
ever going to be on TV full times. Man stuff. Man,
he's gonna start selling me steaks before long. So he's
knocking on your door. Hi, Peyton, you want to buy
some mistakes? Hey? I say, Hey, that's great. Yeah. You know,
the Chad Power skid could have been a lot funnier.

(13:23):
It wasn't would have been a lot funnier. It wasn't
funny at all except a night's haircut. But the end
of the Pro Bowl, which we knew was coming, And
it's a great decision because, like many things, it was
great for a certain amount of time and then it's
era ended. Like a department store that, oh my god,
I've gone to that Macy's for years. What happened well
with online shopping and other niche fashion boutiques opening up,

(13:48):
now people don't go to that Macy's anymore, right a restaurant.
I used to go to that restaurant all the time.
What happened, well, other restaurants were built up in other
parts of town, and this this side of town had
less business on it. The restaurant's not open. I used
to go that theme park all the time. What happened, Well,
a better theme park opened that was more up to date,
with bigger rides. Sometimes things are good forever. Sometimes things

(14:10):
are good for a certain amount of time. It's like
marriages or any kind of relationship. Hey, this matter. We're
gonna be together forever, okay, or maybe you're only meant
to be together for a certain amount of time. This
was the Pro Bowl. It would become an NFL eyesore.
The first reaction to it by fansos always Pro Bowl
and how long can you keep that going on? You can't.
And so now it's finally been accepted and now been

(14:32):
replaced and rebranded, just like a restaurant or a theme park. Hey,
we're replacing it with something else. It's not quite gonna
be the spectacle it was because boy, we had a
great heyday in the seventies and the eighties and the nineties,
and the Pro Bowl was fun. Now it's a little
bit different. It's not gonna be as big a deal.
It'll be a smaller amount of fun. But now we've
replaced the Pro Bowl with this because we've taken away

(14:53):
something and a product that uh painted the NFL in
a less than great light. It was okay, we gotta
get kind of gotta get rid of the Pro Bowl
because it's not helping us. For instance, friends of ours
are looking to move from their house. They want to
sell their house, and in the back of their in
the back of the house, in the backyard, they had
this great shed that was there when they bought the house,

(15:15):
and it's a great shed for storage everything in it.
It's like a red barn and it's really cool, but
it's old and the paint is peeling. And the realtors
told them, hey, when we sell this house, yeah, we
gotta we gotta take that barn down. They're like, wait, what, Yes,
it's when you walk into the house and you look
out the back window and you see this crazy red

(15:36):
barn that's an iore. People are I'm sorry, people aren't
gonna want to buy it, and they're like, oh, they said, yeah,
so it's taking so we're gonna need to take We're
gonna need to tear this down before we sell the
house and cancel the porch bench and kid with Bann Joe,
We're gonna hire from showing barn Barn, Barn Brown, Barren Brown, Bown,
barwn Brown down bound barm barm has no idea what's

(15:58):
song to play in a minute, But but that's that's
kind of what the Pro Bowl is is. It was
great for a while and it's seen its day and
it's time to be replacing. Other things are going to
You're gonna find other things in sports are gonna are
gonna go by the wayside as well, and they should
because some ideas are good for just a certain amount
of time. Yeah, this is gonna be kind of like
the Battle of the Network Stars when it's the Pro

(16:19):
Bowl games. Jason Kelsey had the best idea though, because
if we do this and we have a couple of
days of events and all that stuff, and we don't
have a drinking contest or an eating contest, we've failed.
A drinking contest might be tough, but you played beer pong?

(16:40):
Do you know how NFL players are big? You know
how long beer drinking contest. Would well, let's bring in
some of the brown would go it would go longer
than this game between the Giants, My cos amigoes, how
brought to you my aviation? How much longer these guys
gonna drink? Oh no, they're still going, man, Nick, So
we're just getting started. Brought to you, Hi Moon, But

(17:01):
this drink it's been going on for two and a
half hours. Oh yeah, just man, it's a game of surviving.
Cancel the network news, cancel Jimmy Fallon. We're gonna we
just keep it in the bottom. You know a picture
and picture that's this avengage still going between two hearty
offensive lineman, Twitter and out about a fresca. Mike gets
swollen down the Jason Smith Show with my best friend

(17:24):
Mike Harmon. Coming up, we'll have more from the Cowboys
and the Giants Monday Night game that goes the way
of the Dallas Cowboys and uh hey, you know, I've
been driving a bus for the last couple of months
and now way everybody wants on it. We'll get into
that coming up next right here, Jason, Mike, Steven Tyler,

(17:46):
Joe Perry, who's the drummer, what's his name? Kramer, Kramer,
Get up, Joey Kramer, this is Fox Sports Radio. Just
you forgot the other Brad Whitford Brett. No, not the
West Wing Brad, the other the other bread Witcher. Okay,
they should switch jobs once and see how they did.

(18:06):
Farrow away and dream in hashtag save Pluto, Let it breathe,
let it wash over. You do doo doo doo doo doo.
What that's it? Be sure to catch live editions of
The Jason Smith Show with Mike harmon weekdays at ten
pm Eastern, seven pm Pacific. I was really helping to

(18:30):
get more. I don't want to miss a thing or
dueling Banjo's hashtag save Pluto, Save Pluto, Fox Sports Radio,
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike arm
What's in the bag or shark or something. We could
talk about how complicated other banks make it to redeem
credit card rewards, or we could talk about how with
Discover you can redeem your rewards for cash and any

(18:51):
amount of any time. I mean, talk about amazing learn
more discovered dot com slash redeem rewards terms they do apply.
You know. Evidently Borke has a song called Pluto. Really yeah,
I I gotta say I'm not up on the B York. No,
neither was I, which is why I just wanted to
do a quick search of any song that might be
in tribute or reference Pluto, And that was the first

(19:13):
thing to come up. I really just wanted to hear.
I don't want to miss a thing. I know. I know.
It's like you want to go to the residency in
Las Vengans. I want to go take a road trip
to play it. They do. Yeah, it's a really good
con every time. I just see the the shot that
that made the movie, which was the ben Affleck shot
of him his eyes getting real big and you see
the explosions in the in his helmet. Like that shot

(19:34):
made the move. That was like, oh I have to
see this movie. Yeah see. And and now on the internet,
the memes are of a smoking ben afflete with whatever
jersey of a team that just had something catastrophic. We're
just talking about college football in Oklahoma. He's got an
Oklahoma jersey on and he looks like he'd rather be
anywhere else, or Northwestern jersey for tonight, Daniel Jones jersey,

(19:57):
all of those stuff. Uh, Cowboys be the Giants And
I have to say as a host, I like it
when the Cowboys lose. I don't really have a dog
in the fight for the Cowboys, but just watching the
reaction that we get from fans on TV, on the

(20:18):
radio when the Cowboys lose, nobody can stop talking about it,
and it's awesome. It's it's it's its own entity. When
the Cowboys lose, it's you can't get enough of it.
On television, people melt down over it. Your friends talk
about it, your family talks about it with with people
who like football, every football fan you know, you talk

(20:40):
about plot X. And then the Cowboys losing. How great
is it the Cowboys lost? How unbelievable? And then you
hear the complaints from everybody about the Cowboys, the despair
that they have, the ridiculous hope takes that they have.
That's like, hey, maybe Cooper Rush is better than Dak Prescott. Right, Hey,
we have been given the ball to Zeke. We should

(21:01):
have been doing this all along the last five years.
Should have given the ball to Zeke so much. Zeke
got a big night tonight. Where's Sean Payton? How do
we not have Sean Payton? Mike McCarthy is terrible It
is awesome on so many levels because when the Cowboys lose,
everybody loses their mind and they can't stop talking about it,
and it's everywhere and it's so much fun. And now

(21:21):
tomorrow what it's gonna be is the Cowboys one. But
the Cowboys one, that's what it's going to know. No, see,
now it's all about the Cooper Rush Dack stuff gets
exacerbated because there were several throws that Cooper Rush made
that if the receivers actually do their jobs, Oh, we
could have had a three D the ceedee lamb ball.

(21:42):
Maybe that's a touchdown if nothing else is a huge
game a couple of drops tonight. Right, you also had
the big throw to to Noah Brown going up the
right sideline that was threaded beautifully between two defenders just
off his hands. There there's a hundred yards right there too.
Massive play is that then become part of a highlight

(22:02):
reel because they won, So those don't necessarily get shown
the same way, right if they've lost, Like look at
the throws from Cooper Rush. Now it's Cooper Rush leads
in the victory and the run game with Pollard and
Zeke lead the way. It's a little different narrative, but
it's a victory and it still then gives legs to
what Jerry Jones had to say last week, which as

(22:24):
we did with our uh fine tooth comb went through
and found the gold, which is the well for ten
eleven games. You know that we'd have a controversy if
if Rush could do that. Wait wait, I thought he
was coming back in week five or six, So you've
got that buried there. But in the moment, you gotta
win over a divisional opponent, hard thought game, not pretty, aesthetically, uninteresting,

(22:49):
too many, but Cooper Rush stands supreme. Now he's three
and oh as a starter, but that's good for business.
They said we had to sign Cooper and uh so
we signed him, and apparently him and Amari Cooper are
two different people, so we lost him. Uh and and
I would like to have him back, but h but
now this Cooper turns out he plays quarterback and we

(23:11):
needed that because Dad got hurt and and and Tony
won't return my phone calls, so I can't. We'll be
stuck at quarterback. And I think stallback is as old
as I am, so I don't think he can play
at Allan likes. He likecks it in the booth, so
he likes staying up there. He likes it in the booth.
He likes hanging out in the booth, the television booth. Yes,
he likes in them. But so he's not gonna come
back and play. So that's, uh, that's gonna be difficult.

(23:33):
His beer is pretty good, though, uh maybe I don't know.
I don't know. And uh, then all the other guys,
I I forget all the other quarterbacks we had, I
remember all them. But you got a week four game
against the Commanders coming up. It's a home game, and
as we've seen, Cowboys defense is for real makes a

(23:53):
big place, certainly a pass rush that's pretty uh formidable.
So now you got Lawrence and Parsons and the crew
coming at him, Carson Wentz is gonna be on his
back side a bunch. Now you're three and one. See
this is where the momentum, that old Dante Culpepper thing
after a big play, this is where it goes for
the Cowboys, because now there's hope. Now there's hope in

(24:15):
an NFC devoid of top talent, of teams that are
gonna run away and hide right the package are still flawed.
Buccaneers are still flawed. I just looked somebody, where where
is it? My timeline just put up? I don't know
who did this. Might have been ESPN that has the
playoff rankings already. Yeah, now it already has the seeds
for the for the NFC. Right, So the Eagles are

(24:36):
the top seed being undefeat Well, have more on them
in a few minutes. So the Eagles are the top
seed being undefeated. Right. The Rams would be the two seed,
the Vikings the three seed. Tampa Bay would be the
four seed. Okay, all right, we're here. Some who are
the other playoff teams? The Packers, the Cowboys, and the
Giant is what I mean by the guy already up

(24:57):
here there? Hey, Cowboys would be the See look how
good the NFC East. The NFC East just risen and
the NFC East is bad. The Cowboys the shows today
write down three of those teams would qualify for the playoffs.
You get off your high horse and you respect it. Look,

(25:17):
if we're gonna do arguments over oh this is an
MVP candidate and whatever else, which is the take de jure?
If we can do this too, three teams from the
NFC East. Look at how great it is. What a
competitive division. Okay, so the Eagles would play the Giants. Yeah, Okay,

(25:39):
so that would be eighty six nothing at halftime. Yeah,
but then they'd have a chance in the second half,
because the Eagles don't play in the second half. I mean,
you just think about that for a second. Where after
three weeks I just told you that's where the top
teams would be those how many? How many of those
teams are actually good? Just the Eagles, right, We don't

(26:00):
know how good the Rams are. The Vikings are there,
the Bucks have a lot of problems, the Buck the
Packers aren't that. I just trust that when of those
comes down, teams are good. Like I don't trust old
number number twelve in the Green Bay universe when it
comes to a big playoff game. But he can get
them there. Likewise, I would expect Brady gets through what
is a terrible I don't know, Atlanta might be the

(26:23):
best team on both sides of Brady's gotta worry about
what goes on the JumboTron. Now parallel, It's given away
a lot of secrets. Well, but Aaron Rodgers is the
smartest guy in the room. I don't think anybody else
could have deciphered it. You might have had a guy
standing there with a giant side that the play, and
nobody else would be right enough to see it. I
just saw something because I'm Aaron Rodgers and I'm the

(26:43):
smartest guy in the world. Well maybe he was getting
like messages from Jupiter in The Cowboys are not a
great team. They're gonna struggle all season long because they
are always and what they've always been is a top
heavy team with a bunch of star players and not
nearly an depth to get through injuries or a season.
Once in a while, the Cowboys will have a big,

(27:05):
winning season and they'll win a playoff game. Other years
they won't. They're just like everybody else in the NFL.
That's why I mean the Cowboys losing is special because
people lose their minds on it. But in reality, the
Cowboys are just like so many of the teams in
the NFL that haven't won Super Bowls or playoff games
in the last twenty years. They're just like everybody else.

(27:27):
And when they win, okay, the Cowboys win, and and
you know, we still talk about them because of the Cowboys,
but not nearly like we do when the Cowboys loose.
When the Cowboys is like, everybody's got the knives out,
the fans. It's just something nobody can stop talking about it.
Why the cowboys were all with three O the cowboy
wanted to I don't know, we're gonna do deck ut hurt.
I don't know what patency call that money. I don't know.

(27:50):
It's just it's so entertaining, you know. I kind of
feel like this. People get excited. Look the political society
we are now that you see what the nightly political
shows are on CNN and Fox News and all the
big popular news channels. How I get excited about hearing
people talk when the Cowboys lose is like how I

(28:13):
feel other people who are so completely into politics are
when a story comes up and they can't wait to
see what is said about it on whatever TV show
they watch. Like, if something happens to embarrass one side,
I can't wait to watch my show because they're just
gonna eviscerate them if something happens to embarrass my side,
while I want to see how it's defended. I'm excited

(28:33):
to watch that show at night. I'm excited to watch
because something big political happens every single day, and I'm
excited to see it how it unfolds. That's kind of
how it is when the Cowboys lose. Oh, I can't
wait to see how people lose their minds. Now, it's
it's just that kind of special. Politics has entertainment very
dangerous space. So where we've been. We've been for a while.

(28:54):
But we're talking about TV shows that are entertaining, TV
shows entertaining you about politics. Not there. Here's the lot
and a child gets onto but uh, you see the
plot of the story that breaks. Okay, how is it
covered on the I mean it's it's politics is entertainment.
I'm not going west wing. I'm talking about the actual
quote unquote news channels getting a date. Uh, Roger Waters

(29:17):
amused to death. That was long before streaming services cable,
when the internet became what it is. You gotta explain
the time shirt who Roger Waters is? He has no idea,
has no idea for lead up pack. Now how do
we we gotta ask him? Oh? I'm sorry, now you
just ruined it. He may not be paying attend. Be

and the Giants coming up in a few minutes. But
now with week three of the NFL in the books, Yeah,

(30:45):
I've been driving a bus in a bandwagon for the
last month of my car and been driving around and
now today everybody wants to get on it. That gets
tired after a while, and I mean I've been wearing,
I mean trying to rally a long time with that.
I'm like Atlas. I've been holding up the world. And
now everybody wants on waking up today to see all

(31:06):
over the internet, ESPN, other sites, is Jalen Hurts the
m v P of the NFL through week three? And
I said, well, there we go. There's a take that
we told you about a month ago. Because before the
season started, I told you, well, remember one before the season,
I told you Aaron Judge was gonna win al m
v P. And before the season I told you Jalen

(31:28):
Hurts was going to win the NFL m v P
because he's got what you need to win. He's a
volume quarterback and his team is gonna win big because
you can't go noninate and win the m v P
in the NFL. Can't do it. Your team has to
win and win big. The Eagles are gonna run this
division and they are the best record in the NFC
through three weeks. They have the number one offense in

(31:49):
the NFL through three weeks. Jalen Hurts is responsible for everything,
throwing the football, running the football. He's now throwing for
three yards a week. He has made incredible strides even
from the player he was last year. The thing that
surprises me the most is that there's not been a
lot of get used to each other time because in

(32:09):
the beginning of the season, even though I expect there's
gonna be some kind of growing pains, how are they
going to assimilate a j. Brown and and still keep
Davonte Smith happy? He's gonna No. They have just hit
the ground running and again number one offense in the
NFL most yards per game through three weeks. Jalen Hurts
has been terrific. The Eagles are running out to to
to boat race everybody and here are your takes, Hey,

(32:33):
Jalen Hurts? Is he your m v P through three weeks?
I told you a month ago, is gonna be Jalen Hurts.
He's got everything you need. He's got the storyline, he's
got the attention. This is how you build an m
v P season, and he's showing you how to do it,
brick by brick. See I think, um, I appreciate all
that that that I do. I'd like them to make
some plays in the second half that would be good.

(32:56):
A couple of touchdowns, in the opener against Detroit and
then they've done nothing but punt or turn the ball
over or have field goals blocked. Since so eventually you
gotta play four quarters of football. Yeah, but not yet
if you if you're blowing teams out in the first half.
Now the show is today, and as it stands, they
are three, you know, one of two teams left standing.

(33:16):
Of course them and the Dolphins. Dolphins will get their
first loss on Thursday night. I think we can all
stipulate to that. But we look at Lamar Jackson, who
from a he's wont it before, so sometimes that takes
a little bit of this shine away. But look at
what he's doing as an individual, look at the offensive
prowess as a runner and certainly as a pass or

(33:38):
ten touchdowns against two picks. You can't fault him because
the defense sucks. So when you and I both said,
he's gonna have an m v P type season as well,
But he's a guy that I could see for the
fact that there's a number of folks that say, see,
even with all of this swirling around, the fact that
the Ravens haven't figured anything out, and there are a
bunch of adults at the top. He's still going and

(34:00):
he's bawling out. But but that's the whole thing. If
the Ravens, they could have the exact same season, and
if the Ravens are ten and seven and the Eagles
are thirteen and four, and when the NFC East and
they have home field advantage, guess who's getting all the
m V people said. I would disagree. I would still
think there's enough love for Lamar. I don't forget that.

(34:21):
Josh Allen. Guys still pretty good. Josh Allen's terrific. I mean,
unfortunately in the NFC right now, there's nobody looking to
challenge in terms of an individual that's coming to get you.
And Jalen Hurts has been spectacular in first half of
the game. Yeah, that's what. That's something that's all you need.
I'm only upset, honestly because the Eagles, that team doesn't
deserve him, because they've wanted to push him out for

(34:44):
the last two years. We want to get rid of
Jalen Hurts. Who want to make a trade. We want
to get somebody else. Want to trade Jalen Hurts to Miami.
We want to move on, want to get a different guy.
We're going in onto Shawn Watson to do all these
things and a great motivational t all. Jalen Hurts has
done his ball, and now here he is. I told
he is gonna win the m v P and and
they still probably don't want him. They would say, let's
trade him now he's won the m v P. While

(35:05):
we're trading him at a high value, we really want
to go get somebody else to come in and be
our quarterback. They don't deserve him. That's the only thing
is that the Eagles front office, the front office doesn't
deserve No, not the fans. The front office have wanted
to move on f him for two years. They don't
deserve Jalen Hurts. They don't. Well, to be fair, if
we go through the man's career stats, last year, when

(35:26):
did he complete fifty I forget what the no. Sixty
one point in his rookie year. Now he's up to
sixty seven. That's where you need to be at in
the way NFL teams are run these days, right, short
intermediate passing. Occasionally take your shots downfield to DeVante Smith
and to A J. Brown And that's what he's doing.

(35:46):
And they need more receivers to be part of the mix.
By the way, those guys in Dallas got it. It's
it's a holy trinity. And then they're so athletic. Is
so difficult. I'm looking at to keep you and your
m v P kind of train here that the other
guys are gonna stay up, because otherwise the prowess of

(36:08):
the run game is going to mute some of Jalen
Hurts is overall playing a room on the bandwagon, getting
the back drink out of the keg. It's awesome inverted
keg stand, fantastic cover charge. More from the NFL Monday
Night game, and a hot take for an entire division.
